Butch's Leash Under Currie

On the Chip Kelly talk...

"Tennessee would not make that chase at all."

- LWS

 

Unless they do.

 

Precisely.

I was wondering how long it would take. You're behind

 

Yeah, in that case the situation might be fluid.

 

He's the same one who said Fulmer for AD was a done deal

 

In Fulmer's eyes, it was

 

That guy is a clown but he's probably right. Just keep up with the MAC and AAC if you want a list of coaches Tennessee will pursue. I hope Currie is different but I'll believe it when I see it.

 

I know we talk alot about Currie, but doesn't this all start and stop with big Jim?

I mean, is it more or less solely up to him whether we (1) fire Butch and (2) hire someone like Chip Kelly

Currie is probably the one who has to do all the legwork and get this stuff in line to happen, but if Big Jim is the one pulling the trigger can we trust him to do what needs to be done?

 

Time to tell Big Jim to either get in line or go support Vanderbilt.

 

Agreed. At what point are they losing a dime to earn a nickel??? I'm sure they love the big checks he writes but how much do they lose based off the piss poor decisions???

 

Must be really grueling to spend all of your time wrecking two sports organizations.

 

This is half informed half guessing, but I'd not be entirely shocked if Currie has a much longer leash u set big jim than Hart ever did.

 

Currie is enough of a bastard to get a movement going against Big Jim if he feels slighted by him and sees an opportunity to get others to turn.

Will he? Doubtful

 

Jones thru 2020 IMO.

 

I don't think Hart was ever trusted enough to make decisions outside of the merger.

Better or worse, hammy had some independence and decision making ability.

 

I doubt Currie would go after Chip.

 

Brian Kelly on the rebound IMO.

 

Not no, but hail no.

 

Heard it here first.

Would only seem fair considering UTs stupidity.

 

Why?
